This is the City of London, made of cake. I found it on a stall at a street fair — it had been created by RIBA students, and I hope they ate it when the event was over. They'd also made a map of the upcoming Olympic site in east London with vegetables. I like this idea of edible constructions. There was a car advertisement on TV a while ago, where smiling bakers made a copy of the company's latest car out of cake, including the engine. No shots of them then sitting in the car or eating it though. I like the idea of something that's edible, but which also functions. Edible furniture perhaps — when you've eaten your dinner and are still hungry, you could eat your way through the plate and into the table.
